A waterproof and shockproof cover for a PAD computer is disclosed. The cover comprises an upper housing, a base housing, a glass, a first rubber ring, a second rubber ring and four shockproof elements. The base housing is corresponding to the upper housing, wherein the upper housing comprises a first connection and the base housing comprises a second connection corresponding to the first connection for fastening with each other. The upper housing comprises a viewing window hole and a first groove formed around the rim of the viewing hole, and the first rubber ring is disposed within the first groove. The glass covers the viewing window hole and the first rubber ring. The four shockproof elements disposed respectively at four corners of a rectangular accommodation space of the base housing for bearing the PAD computer.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection. Each claim is shown in both the original legal language and a plain English translation.
1. A waterproof and shockproof cover for a PAD computer comprising: an upper housing comprising a viewing window hole and a first groove, wherein the first groove is formed around the rim of the viewing window hole; a first rubber ring disposed corresponding to the first groove so as to allow the first groove to receive the first rubber ring; a glass covering the viewing window hole and the first rubber ring; a base housing comprising a base groove and a rectangular accommodation space having four corners, wherein the base housing corresponds to the upper housing, the upper housing comprises a first connection, and the base housing comprises a second connection corresponding to the first connection for fastening with each other; a second rubber ring corresponding to the base groove, wherein the base groove receives the second rubber ring; and four shockproof elements disposed respectively at the four corners of the rectangular accommodation space of the base housing for bearing the PAD computer.
A protective case for a tablet computer provides both waterproof and shockproof features. The case has an upper and lower housing that connect to each other. The upper housing has a window opening to view the screen, surrounded by a groove. A rubber ring sits within this groove, and a transparent glass or plastic screen covers the window and seals against the rubber ring, making it waterproof. Inside the lower housing is a space to hold the tablet. At each of the four corners of this space are shock-absorbing elements, like rubber bumpers, designed to protect the tablet from impacts. The upper and lower housings attach using corresponding connection mechanisms. A second rubber ring seals the joint between the upper and lower housings.
2. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the upper housing comprises a second groove located corresponding to the base groove, and the second rubber ring is received into both the base groove and the second groove when the upper housing and the base housing are fastening with each other.
The waterproof and shockproof case described above includes a further refinement to the seal between the upper and lower housings. The upper housing has a second groove that aligns with a groove in the base housing. When the upper and lower housings are joined, the second rubber ring is compressed into both the base groove and this additional groove in the upper housing, creating a double seal for improved waterproofing between the upper and lower sections of the case. This ensures no water can get in.
3. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the four shockproof elements are four rubber balls, and each rubber ball is formed with a hole for receiving a corner of the PAD computer.
In the waterproof and shockproof case with the double-sealed upper and lower housings described above, the four shockproof elements located at the corners of the tablet's resting space are rubber balls. Each rubber ball has a hole in it. The corners of the tablet computer fit snugly into these holes in the rubber balls, which act as cushions to absorb impacts and protect the tablet from shock. The rubber balls minimize movement of the tablet within the case.
4. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 2 , wherein each shockproof element is formed with at least two rubber pads.
In the waterproof and shockproof case with the double-sealed upper and lower housings described above, the shockproof elements are implemented as multiple rubber pads at each corner. Each shockproof element consists of at least two rubber pads. The pads absorb shock and vibration. This design offers multiple points of contact and increased cushioning compared to a single pad.
5. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the upper housing or the base housing comprises at least one press button for controlling the PAD computer.
The waterproof and shockproof case for a tablet computer, including its upper housing with a viewing window and sealing, its lower housing and shock-absorbing corners, as well as the sealing rubber rings, also includes physical buttons. Either the upper or lower housing (or both) contains one or more press buttons that allow the user to control functions of the tablet computer while it is inside the sealed case. This provides access to power, volume, or other controls.
6. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the four shockproof elements are four rubber balls, and each rubber ball is formed with a hole for receiving a corner of the PAD computer.
The waterproof and shockproof case for a tablet computer featuring its sealed window, connecting housings, and shock-absorbing features, specifically uses rubber balls as the shockproof elements. These rubber balls are placed at the four corners of the space inside the lower housing where the tablet sits. Each rubber ball has a hole designed to receive and hold a corner of the tablet, providing a cushioned and secure fit to protect against impacts.
7. The waterproof and shockproof cover as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each shockproof element is formed with at least two rubber pads.
The waterproof and shockproof case for a tablet computer featuring its sealed window, connecting housings, and shock-absorbing features, implements the shockproof elements using rubber pads. At each of the four corners of the tablet's resting space, there are at least two rubber pads forming each shockproof element. These multiple pads provide enhanced cushioning and shock absorption compared to a single pad design.
